Conner Tillo and Rachel Barnes

Diversity and student services. These are two points of action that Conner Tillo and Rachel Barnes would take if elected to lead the student body.

To increase diversity on campus, Tillo and Barnes said they want to work with the International Students and Scholars Office to help with international student issues including finding a job after graduation.

Student services are a priority for Tillo and Barnes, as they have introduced ideas such as getting Iowa State students digital IDs and putting cameras in Iowa State’s gyms to show if they are crowded or if a certain machine has been taken.

Cody West and Cody Smith

Cody West and Cody Smith want to be the next student body president and vice president at Iowa State with goals of building community and restoring tradition.

A main way that West and Smith plan to build community is through education. This includes implementing a course called Cyclone 101 that would replace and cover Library 160 topics as well as need-to-knows for new students.

West and Smith want to tackle restoring tradition by creating a springtime celebration that includes all of Iowa State. They want the students to have an alternative to what Veishea once was without its negative aspects.

Anthony Chavez and Emeline Hanscel

Anthony Chavez and Emeline Hanscel are running a write-in campaign for student body president and vice president. They are inspired by a lack of transparency on campus.

They feel this transparency should specifically apply to Steven Leath, the Board of Regents and Student Government.

They hope to help improve the campus community’s trust in Student Government and decrease spending across the board.

Chavez and Hanscel find it important to improve the relationship between Student Government and legislators and Iowa State’s administration.
